His mother however, is now demanding the money back! Not only are the ears several shades lighter than Michael's skin colour but also one of the ears, which are held on by screws, keeps falling off and the hearing aid falls out whenever he moves his chin.

Clive, an entertainment union (ACTT) delegate, proposed a motion - in sign language - calling for action to give deaf people equality through official recognition of sign language, state funded interpreters and more money for TV subtitling and sign language. ■ Deaf nun Sister Denise Gardiner raised £4,000 for the Cardiff Centre for the Deaf recently by jumping from a plane at 2,200 feet - with a parachute of course.
